Detroit Arsenal was an American soccer team, founded in 1997. The club initially played under the USASA and won the National Championship title in 1999 and 2000, prior to joining the Midwest Conference of the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL), the fourth tier of the American soccer pyramid, in 2005.
The Arsenal played their home matches at Hurley Field on the grounds of Berkley High School in the city of Berkley, Michigan, 17 miles (27 km) north of downtown Detroit. The team's colors were black, silver and white.
The Arsenal were NPSL champions in 2005, their first year in the competition following the league's expansion into the Midwest.
Following the 2006 NPSL season, the team's management announced that they would spend the 2007 season on hiatus.[citation needed] The team never returned.
